Woody

Canadian hemlock smells crisp, green, and distinctly woody—imagine walking through a cool coniferous forest after rain. There's a sharp, almost peppery freshness reminiscent of crushed needles and bark, layered with subtle earthiness and a faint medicinal quality. It's not sweet; instead, it evokes the austere beauty of evergreen branches, with whispers of camphor and resin that catch in the back of your nose like breathing in mountain air.

Spicy

Cardamom smells like opening a spice jar in an Indian kitchen—warm, slightly sweet, with a cooling menthol undertone that makes your nose tingle pleasantly. Imagine biting into a cardamom pod: there's honeyed sweetness, a hint of citrus brightness, and an almost eucalyptus-like freshness that lingers. It's creamy and slightly woody, nothing aggressive, but distinctly aromatic and memorable. It's the scent of chai brewing, of comfort and sophistication mingling together.
